Chest day is important. Every rep is an opportunity to practice how you want to perform.
In this video, I break down my approach to bench pressing for beginners—from warming up with intent and pressing explosively to getting your body set and paying attention to elbow position. I walk through building up to a heavy top set, working back down, and approaching those working sets with purpose.
We also get into flat, incline, and decline bench press, dumbbell presses, push-ups, machines, and why recovery and nutrition deserve the same attention as your training.
Then we take it beyond the weights. Channeling your intensity. Controlling your emotions. Becoming more capable and dependable. The discipline you practice in the gym should show up in how you handle your life.
PUT A PLAN BEHIND YOUR EFFORT.
Inside Alpha Shred, you get gym workouts, home workouts, and a complete custom meal plan. Different eating styles, different flavor profiles, and a shopping list to help you follow through.
Bring the effort. I’ll bring the structure.
